Sinopse

A poem-by-poem engagement with Sylvia Plath's Ariel and the towering mythology surrounding it.
  When I am a bitch I feel in such good company.
  Nice girls never gave me anything but trouble,
  Eating the ground out from under me, then waving
  As I fall. Pity one has to die to see how liberating
  Bad can be. But what news had I of my own self?
  Words landed like razors, hours tinkled, suitors arrived.
  Listen, you'll think otherwise, but I tell you, betrayal
  Is your Get Out of Jail Free card. Take it,
  Don't look back. Of course you will. Look back.
  We always do, we who adore the muscle
  Of our cashmere cells, a cock that makes
  Our knees weak. Darlings, don't be sweet,
  Or serviceable. Don't accommodate,
  Write in blood or don't bother ...
  
  Where were you when you first read Ariel? Who were you? What has changed in your life? In the lives of women? In My Ariel, Sina Queyras barges into one of the iconic texts of the twentieth century, with her own family baggage in tow, exploring and exploding the cultural norms, forms, and procedures that frame and contain the lives of women.

The Tragedy of Julius Caesar - cover

The Tragedy of Julius Caesar

The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a history play and tragedy by William Shakespeare first performed in 1599. It is one of several plays written by Shakespeare based on true events from Roman history, such as Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra.
Set in Rome in 44 BC, the play depicts the moral dilemma of Brutus as he joins a conspiracy led by Cassius to murder Julius Caesar to prevent him from becoming dictator of Rome. Following Caesar's death, Rome is thrust into a period of civil war, and the republic the conspirators sought to preserve is lost forever.
Although the play is named Julius Caesar, Brutus speaks more than four times as many lines as the title character; and the central psychological drama of the play focuses on Brutus' struggle between the conflicting demands of honour, patriotism, and friendship. 
Among the most significant works William Shakespeare: Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth, Orpheus, Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Troilus and Cressida, The Tempest, Venus and Adonis, Antony and Cleopatra, Measure for Measure, The Winter's Tale and many more.

Through poems about fossilised fruit seeds and the sofa where Emily Brontë died, Wetton questions how we curate the lives of those living and dead in a pamphlet about looking, processing, and memorialising. Whether considering preserved wedding-cakes, a non-existent art exhibition or a human scream, these poems speak to the impossibility of containment and question our ability to map and categorise.
This is a pamphlet of poems about the stories that we tell ourselves, the memories that we construct, and the ways that we value and devalue people, animals and objects alike.

Cupiditas: Evil's Root is a sequel to Michael Segedy's political thriller, In Deep. The novel is set in South America. Like In Deep, it is full of twists and turns, romance and adventure, with dark underpinnings that show how powerful, ruthless political and corporate structures cast shadows over the lives of all of us. In this exciting mystery, you'll meet fascinating characters you'll never forget: Drug lords, mass murderers, a courageous old Peruvian general, and two young Americans brave enough to confront the greatest power on earth.

Published in 1879, this play was a bombshell, exposing the tragic hypocrisy of Victorian middle class marriage. The play is significant for the way it deals with the fate of a married woman, who at the time in Norway lacked reasonable opportunities for self-fulfillment in a male-dominated world. - A wife was almost literally a bird in a cage for display by the husband. Note that this is a solo reading of the entire play by one person.
